this growth

Although the sudden appearance of the dragon greatly accelerated the speed at which the dragon boat reached the sea, the well-trained boatmen did not lose their footing because of his sudden appearance. With the next wave, the five heavenly dragons in front immediately flew down according to the order, and the boatmen who were clinging to the boat immediately jumped to the sides of the boat, each holding a rope in their hands, and stretched the rope Straight, under the guidance of their respective directions, the bow of the boat touches the water lightly first, followed by the front, middle, and finally the stern. When I looked outside, I found that I was already on the sea.

If this place can be called "sea surface".

Du Nan was surprised to find that he was now above a white cloud.

cloud?Wait—they rushed out from the sea before, although the speed of the big guy suddenly reached the limit and they rushed out without seeing anything... Could it be that something happened in this distance ?

On the contrary, Brother Qing felt that his feet were stable, so he quickly let go of the handrail, and signaled that Du Nan and the others were safe.

"Brother, don't worry, the sea here is like this. The topmost layer is a sea of ​​clouds, and the water vapor below is getting heavier and heavier, so it is the same as the sea in your place." Qing Geer, a caring little tour guide, said.

"I was shocked when I saw the sea in your place for the first time! There is no cloud cover in the sea in your place." After staying with Du Nan's family for a long time, Brother Qing also learned the ending accent of their Tuer Village dialect Mile.

"Yunyi? Do you mean this sea of ​​clouds? It's quite appropriate." Du Nan finally understood.

But, looking at it this way, it looks more like a heavenly palace.

Isn't this the place where the legendary gods live?Those who live on the clouds, stand on the ground, and hide their legs in the clouds.

As expected of Zhenhai——and at the same time, the boss of the boat and the boatmen also came back one after another. When they came back with them, Dunyi became a human again, and her clothes were changed. With obvious joy, but also a hint of surprise.

"That dragon... isn't that dragon?" Dun Yi asked Du Nan.

"Well, it was him. He was seriously injured before, and was brought to my space by the black unicorn. He collided with me and then disappeared. I thought they had left. After all, I didn't notice when they came. I thought that black unicorn had some more powerful supernatural powers..." Du Nan said to him, and when he said this, Du Nan was still a little worried: "What should I do? That dragon is a fugitive, and I harbored a fugitive—"" It's okay if you don't know." Dun Yi said.

However, Du Nan was even more worried: "But I brought this dragon here, the other party is not a good dragon..."

"Then don't worry about it. We have a lot of dragons here. It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad. It's better if it's bad. In the future, we'll have another piece of dragon meat on our dinner plate." On the contrary, the boss of the boat, who had only half listened to the words, smiled heartily. And behind him, the other boatmen were also grinning. They had seen the big guy just now, but they didn't take the big guy's background seriously. Seeing their ordinary attitude, Du Nan opened his mouth, his mood unexpectedly Also slowly relax.

He was not interested in the Tianlong at all, but was very interested in Dunyi. The boss of the boat and the boatmen surrounded Dunyi: "This big brother is amazing! Are you also a dragon? It looks different from the dragons here... ..."

"No, I'm not a dragon, I'm a clam." Not used to being noticed, Dun Yi habitually looked down and landed on the deck, but answered everyone's questions slowly.

"Clam? What is a clam? We don't know. Don't blame us for our ignorance. It's because our resources are poor here. There is nothing in the sea except dragons..."

Should a sea with nothing but dragons be barren?

For the people living here, maybe it is. Hearing the crew chattering with Dun Yi, Du Nan once again looked at the sea of ​​clouds ahead.

The time they came here was just right, the sun was rising from the end of the sea of ​​clouds, half a round of red sun dyed half of the sea red, that boundless sea——Du Nan had never seen such a wide sea surface, and it was true in all directions. It's all a sea of ​​clouds!Here, after a long time, people will have an illusion that there are only two parts here, one is the sky above their heads, and the other is the sea of ​​clouds under their boat. There is no land, only the sky and the sea.

And when the sun rose higher and higher and the sky became bluer and bluer, Du Nan felt that the world had turned upside down.

look!The sky is blue and the sea is snow-white. It seems that the clouds have come to the ground and the sea has come to the sky!

This wonderful feeling lasted for a long time, until a boatman suddenly shouted: "I see! We are coming!"

Looking forward in his direction, Du Nan saw a small island appearing in front of him.Compared with the sea area that seemed to be almost as wide as the sky and the earth, the island looked small, but as they got closer, Du Nan found that it was just small.

And as they got closer, Du Nan gradually saw the scenery of the island—a wide beach is a must, and behind it is a forest like a coconut grove, and behind the forest, Du Nan can't see clearly Yes, but it doesn't matter, on the sea in front of the beach, he saw a lot of fishing boats, and even more so, a lot of people!

All of them were dark-skinned, tall and strong, and they were chanting. They dragged something out of the sea with ropes, and while exerting force, they also chanted the chant that Du Nan had heard by heart all the way—— "Zhang Sanlang!"

"Ho-hey!"

"Great strength!"

"Ho-hey!"

"Come on!"

"Ho-hey!"

……

Before they finished shouting, the boatman above Du Nan's head suddenly shouted: "Brother, brother—I'm back! I'm back!"

It was only then that Du Nan remembered that the boatman in charge of exploring the road above today was named Zhang Wulang. Reminiscent of the "Zhang Sanlang" that was yelled in the call just now, they are indeed a family!

Sure enough, when he yelled out, the fishermen who were still concentrating on pulling the rope raised their heads one after another, seeing the big dragon boat in front of them, all of them smiled, and one of the young men let out a big smile. Ya: "It's just in time for you to come back. We just brought up a dragon. It's a red dragon. You like to eat it the most!"

Zhang Wulang on Du Nan's head cheered and slid down the mast, while other people on the ship also ran up to the bow one after another. cheers - "Finally home!"

The joy of the boatmen was real, and their voices were extremely loud. However, there was one voice that was louder than theirs.

Dazed by what he had seen and heard before, he didn't wake up until now. The fat man knelt down on his knees, facing the sea of ​​clouds, and he also yelled loudly—"I'm finally home! I'm back! Daddy, Daddy——" At the end, the word "Father" echoed and spread far away. The native fishermen who had run over from the island to meet everyone were a little dumbfounded. Seeing this strange white fat man, their footsteps became hesitant, and finally I couldn't hold it back, and when I met the boss of the boat and the others, someone asked, "This...is the debt left by that bastard outside?"

The person who spoke was an old man, who looked not young but was stronger than the boss of the boat. Obviously, he was very prestigious on the side of the boss of the boat. Seeing him coming, the boatmen all punched their shoulders with their right fists. This is a greeting to the elders. The etiquette is very cordial and respectful - as early as on the road, when Du Nan asked Brother Qing for local etiquette, Brother Qing handed over this etiquette to him.

The boat boss quickly shook his head, and also punched his shoulder with his right fist. After greeting the old man, he quickly explained: "It's not ours, it's the dragon's."

"He said his father is Tianlong."

Old man:  …

Fishermen: ...

The boat boss hurriedly brought Du Nan's family over and introduced them to each other: "Ignore that person, these are my friends, this is Mrs. Du, next to her daughter and son-in-law, Du Yuhan, Zhu Zixuan, and this The doll's name is Du Nan, and he is the eldest brother Qinggeer met on the way, and he took good care of Qinggeer along the way, and taught him a lot."

"There is a daughter in their family who is not feeling well. I will tell everyone later that the reason why their family came here is because our place is suitable for his daughter to rest."

After introducing the old Du's family, the boss of the boat introduced Dun Yi again: "This is Mr. Dun Yi. He came from the same place as Zixuan and the others. He also helped out on the way home."

Speaking of this, he couldn't hold back, and couldn't help but praise: "Mr. Dunyi is very strong! He is a strong man!"

As soon as these words came out, the old man and the fishermen looked at Dun Yi differently, with admiration and appreciation at that time.

Du Nan: ...the aesthetic here is really direct and rough, his dad needs to train his muscles.

After introducing the old Du's family and Dun Yi, the boat boss introduced the old man and the people who came over. Only then did Du Nan know that the old man was the uncle of the boat boss and the head of their village. Although he was not the oldest, he was the strongest in the village. He is also the most respected person.

So, after the introduction of the boss of the boat came to an end, Du Nan immediately punched the shoulder with his right fist and saluted the old man respectfully, followed by the others. Seeing his movements, Zhu Zixuan remembered that Du Nan had taught them before Du Yingying, after Zhu Zixuan, took her daughter to salute the old man and everyone, and then introduced her family and the reason for coming here. It's not concealed, it's clear.

The old man was obviously very knowledgeable. Seeing Du Yingying's salute and hearing where their family came from, he immediately realized something, and then communicated frankly with Du Yingying.

"Since the expert said that the east side is good for the baby's health, then stay here with us. You are friends of Aying, friends of all of us. Treat this as your own home. Go to Aying's house first, and return to the village for you. Build a house, and it will be more convenient to live in." The old man looked very fierce, and he didn't want to be very kind to their family, especially when he saw Du Nan.

He also bent down and patted Du Nan on the shoulder, and praised: "This doll is good, her body is not far from Brother Qing's. Looking at her gentle demeanor, I am afraid that her knowledge will be a few blocks away from Brother Qing's. She has both civil and military skills. , good boy!"

Seeing the admiration in the old man's eyes, Du Nan quickly thanked him.

Tired of leaning beside the old man, it was just a slap, Qing Geer ran away with Du Nan.

"Brother, I'll take you to see the dragon, it's a red dragon! Red dragons are hard to catch!"

So Du Nan saw the legendary thing - the huge red dragon was stabbed to death by several long harpoons, and the heavy body was dragged away from the sea by fishermen with ropes. If dragging prey is the job of men Well, it's the women's job to deal with the prey next.And this job is obviously not easy at all compared to the former.

After seeing the men who competed in the local dragon competition, Du Nan saw the same powerful local women's army. They were also tall and fit. They came here with knives and pots. Ordinary knives are bigger, but the pot is a huge pot!Comparable to his family's bath tub!The women came one by one with basins on their heads, knives in their right hands, and stools that looked like horseshoes in their left hands. After a simple greeting to everyone, they opened the stools and waited aside with large basins in their hands.

An old woman seemed to be the host. She cut off the faucet with a single knife, and an unusually tall woman next to her immediately picked up the basin next to it and began to fill it with blood. When the blood in the basin was almost full, the next woman followed Put your own big basin over, connect seamlessly, and make sure not a drop of blood leaks, and when everyone's basin is full of blood, the red-armored giant dragon's wound will not flow out even a drop of blood Then, the old woman made a long opening in the dragon's belly with a knife, and helped her to support the dragon's body when the knife was opened. After the knife was finished, the women put down the dragon and sat On the horses that had been braced, they waved the knives in their hands with a smile, and divided the dragon meat like cutting a pig or sheep.

This scene is really shocking!

It was not until this moment that Du Nan deeply felt that he was now beside the real sea—the legendary Dragon Township!That place is rich in celestial dragons, and the fishermen are very good at catching dragons, and even make a living by catching dragons, and every household can eat dragon meat.
